The Cape Town Holocaust & Genocide Centre invites high school history educators across Southern Africa and beyond to apply for our Residential Educator Training Programme in Cape Town, from Sunday, 13 to Friday, 18 July 2025.
This full-time, week-long programme is designed to equip and empower in-service high school history educators to teach the subject of World War Two and the Holocaust, as well as 19th Century Pseudoscientific Theories of Race, in their classrooms. The content of the course supports the South African National Curriculum requirements, and is SACE-approved.
There will be a focus on working with primary sources, creating engaging group-work activities for learners, and exploring the history of the Holocaust in depth. There will also be an opportunity to look at the case studies of Apartheid and the Genocide Against the Tutsi in Rwanda, as it relates to racism and human rights.
Educators are required to complete an online application form. The deadline for completion is 31 March 2025. Subsidies are available to contribute towards travel arrangements.
